Eating a FISHTAIL PALM TREE!! 🌴 Heart of Palm Superfood! | Khao Sok, Thailand

🎥 Vegan Jungle food in Thailand: • Eating WILD FERN 🌿 + S...
🏠 Rungfah Farm: / rungfahfarmstay
Huge thank you to P’You from Rungfah Farm for their amazing hospitality and showing me the amazing resources the jungle provides. Today we headed into the rainforest - but we actually harvested a fishtail palm tree that was on his property within their rubber tree plantation - not in the rainforest.
In order to prepare and harvest a fishtail palm tree, you need to first find a tree that’s not too big but has enough meat on the inside to consume. P’You cut it down, and chopped off the top part. He then sliced down the outer skin to reveal the heart of the palm, the soft inner core of the tree. You can eat it raw too, and it almost has a coconut and bamboo shoot mixed taste and texture. It’s sweet and milky! P’You mentioned to me that it was a favorite elephant food in the jungle.
We went back to Rungfah Farm where P’You and his wife boiled coconut milk and and shallots and simmered the fishtail palm tree hearts in the coconut milk. It was delicious, sweet, crisp, and extremely refreshing. I especially loved the contrast of sweet fishtail palm tree heart with sweet coconut milk and spicy chilies from the farm.
Thank you again to P’You ( / rungfahfarmstay ) for taking me on this plant based food excursion.
Thank you for watching and hope you’re having a fantastic day!

I don't comment often - but had to say this is one of my favorite series you've done so far. P’You is so fun to watch - truly impressed with his knowledge and excitement! His English speaking is also truly impressive. Lots of respect!

P'Yu the humblest and down to earth millionaire or billionaire..even the nature lives well with him while Mark is made from all kindness, sweetness and every goodness by God😊

Wow that's THE most beautiful comment I have ever read.

How do you know he’s a millionaire? Did they mention that in the video?

[@melodybatoon5387]

I’m from the extreme north of the Philippines and this food is so precious. The council of elders in our place are regulating the consumption of these delicious palms so it would not disappear in the future.

[@happytrailz-travel7366]

Mark and P'you are so good together! I hope to see more videos with them together. Great job!

To be honest, I didn't like you the first time I watched, but I found myself coming back time after time for MORE! More learning, more experiencing thru you, more happiness from your infectious enthusiasm. Now I can't get enough and am always surprised at all the places you've been. And love the "Wow" especially when those around you start saying it!!! Lol! That needs to go on a tee shirt! I finally got to video were you explain how you make money to travel and eat 6 years old, I think the video was, and I'm impressed. To see your life evolve is awesome. Keep up the great work! Love to your family. Only in my dreams of moving to Thailand!

Mark, here in Brazil we call 'palmito' and it is a traditional food here, but culturally consumed by natives of the Amazon, also consumed with honey as a sweet

I'm trying to eat it every time when I'm in Brazil, It's very popular, I like to eat them with some chilli sauce. I really miss them those times.

Been waiting on your video!

[@luciana-hs8cg]

Me too. Lack of inspiration for food especially in this pandemic.

[@aaramzee]

Through these days of capital worship and chaos caused by Corona virus pandemic, this video serious proved that it is still possible for humans to live with harmony to nature and never go hungry. The current situation also taught humanity that how modern and scientific you think you are but nature teach us time and again that balance of power still hold b6 nature.
